Another rural crime story

Simply get tough on crime
Right now there is nearly zero accountability for anyone’s actions.

As a rural resident, it is hard to argue that it is a good idea. But to play devils advocate, I could then get away with murder of almost anyone, all I have to do is drag the body back to my home, and claim he was breaking in. After all, dead men don't talk.

Dead men might not talk,,, but forensics do.

It's very easy to tell whether a freshly killed body has been moved, remember we're not talking about a body being dead 6 or 12 months after the fact.

We need a "Castle Law" for any residence outside the city/town limits, which have a permanent police station. Meaning for example, if your home is inside the city limits of Regina or say N. Battleford you have no Castle Law privileges(because the police or RCMP are close at hand. If your home is outside the city limits, Castle Law rules are in place for you and your family, and you'd be allowed to use lethal force, if necessary, when an intruder enters into your residence. You would not have to prove your life was in danger, before taking action. You would be allowed to neutralize the threat before you were over come, and forced to watch your wife being ****d or beaten in front of you, or your daughter, or your son.
Maybe the Castle Law could apply to more than just your residence, perhaps your designated farmyard.
Perhaps it could also apply to an office/business, or community gathering place as well.

Long term this wouldn't be a good idea as the subsequent posted described its puts the law into people's hands that shouldn't be. Capital punishment for continuous repeat offenders is where we need to go. I still think it will have more impact than the slight threat of being caught and spending a few weeks in jail

The North has way more crime than the south, murder rate is around 7 times higher up there.
The crime rate up north is around 6 times higher than down in southern Saskatchewan.

Dare I ask the non politically correct question; what is the ratio of native, to non-native persons in the north vs. the south?

That should read rural

It’s pretty white down here, isn’t there a song about attitude changes with latitude?
